70 (B)Make haste, O God, to deliver me!
O Lord, make haste to help me!

who seek my life!
Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor
who delight in my hurt!
3 Let them turn back because of their shame
who say, “Aha, Aha!”
4 May all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you!

You are my help and my deliverer;
O Lord, do not delay!
